Ayaansh Age - 8 years old Follow Toby and Lily on a delightful rainy-day adventure where paper boats, hot chocolate, scenic landscapes, and simple family moments remind us that life's happiest memories are often the simplest. One day in a beautiful town of Edinburgh there was a boy named Toby. He was 9 years old and his sister Lily was 7 years old. They both went out to play but suddenly it started raining heavily. They all ran inside the house. Lily asked if they could go to the garden to sail paper boats. Her mom said it was raining very heavily and there could be snails in the garden. Toby and Lily asked please and their mom said yes. They made their paper boats, put insect repellent and went to the garden. They put there paper boats in a big puddle. The paper boats started moving. Toby's boat and Lily's boat came at the finish line at the same time! They went inside the bathroom and washed their legs, hands, face. They both were very hungry. They had 2 bowls of hot tomato soup and a bowl of corn. Next day it stopped raining so they decided to go to Isle of Sky. It was a scenic drive for them. They saw many trees, flowers and lakes. They stopped at Costa Coffee to get hot chocolate. They even relished the yummy chocolate chip cookie and it was very yummy . They reached their hotel and it was still raining! They freshened up and ate some food. It was not raining so they decided to go to Blaven Mountain which has amazing views. Their was even a ropeway which took them to the top of the mountain. Suddenly it started raining heavily. They went to a cafe at the top of the mountain. They drank hot chocolate. They clicked some pictures. After some time mom said it was time to leave. Lily and Toby had a wonderful time during their monsoon getaway.

Kaalika-The Rise of Raktbeej Poonam Desai Author In the previous chapters, we saw Hiranya Kashyap and his aide Swarbhanu discover the resurrection stone at Kalimath and manage resurrect demon Raktbeej while Sharvari, Dhaigham, Kasar and Dilan fail to stop them. As Raktbeej comes to power, chaos reigns in the entire country. Mr. Raghav Sinha from the disaster management office is contacted by Hiranya under guise of Bija financials. The PM asks Mr. Sinha to contact DIG Pandey. Sharvari and Kasar brief Mr. Sinha and DIG Pandey about their discoveries and the duo is shocked to learn about Raktbeej. They are now banking on Dilan and Dhaigham to find a solution. Meanwhile Hiranya and the demon Raktbeej have raised the bar. Dilan finds Durga’s lost weapons. Chapter 18 They were all at Sharvari’s home listening to the PM address the nation. “In this time of chaos and mayhem, I come bearing grave news. Mr. Raghav Sinha, our strategic head of defence and PMO was killed in a blast at the DIG office in New Delhi today…..” Sharvari kicked the carpet. “He played me and I fell for it.” She stood before Dhaigham and shouted, “If the fate of the world is on my shoulders, we have lost the war before it began.” Dhaigham had no words to console her. Kasar walked to her and held her close. “Don’t blame yourself. Nothing is predictable in a war.” She sat next to him on the sofa. Dilan came and sat at her feet. “We need to move on and think of the next event. As cold as it sounds, there are more lives at stake, and I am sure Raghav sir would have been as objective in this situation.” The news caught their attention again…. “Please welcome Mr. Hiranya Kashyap, known strategist and philanthropist, CEO of Bija financials to take over the reigns after Mr. Sinha.” “What the f**k!,” Kasar cursed. Sharvari froze her eyes wide. Dilan sprang to his feet. “How the hell did he pull this off.” “No….this is bad, very bad,” Sharvari murmured. “The PM is out of his mind!” Kasar continued to rant. Out of his mind. Those words struck a chord. In her panic over the attack, she had missed another fact from the conversation she had overheard. “Enzyme,” she whispered. “What?” all the three men asked in unison. “He spoke of an enzyme that day.” “You think it has something to do with the attack, and this take over?” Kasar asked. “I am not sure, but it sounds related. How else could he infiltrate the highest order of office.” She turned to Dhaigham, “Did Raktbeej’s blood have any special powers?” “They could regenerate a clone.” “His clone, right?” “Yes.” “You think he has cloned the PM?” “Highly unlikely. That would take him time. This is something quick.” Dhaigham chimed in. “Raktbeej’s power of producing strong clones could also be related to inducing chaotic thoughts in an individual’s mind. He may have done the same to people who planted the bomb, the PM as well.” “That does sound plausible. But now what do we do?” “Hiranya will use his powers to first get us out of the way, so we have to be alert and on our toes.” A knock on the door broke their discussion. Sharvari opened the door to find men in civil clothes. One of them stepped forward and stated, “DSP Sharvari you and officer Kasar are hereby place under arrest for an attempt on the life of DIG Gupta and the murder of MR. Sinha.” “But…” “You have the right to remain silent, anything you say will be used against you in court. This is a nonbailable offence of the highest degree of treason.” She began to resist, but Kasar held her back. “Let’s go with them for now.” He looked at Dilan and Dhaigham and said, “It’s the first day of Navratri and we are way over our heads. You both figure a way out and fast.” Dilan swallowed a lump. This went downhill fast and Hiranya had managed to take out the strongest of them. “Grandfather lets go back to the temple and pray.” “That will be a good idea. Laying low, at least we will be of some use.” They gathered their belongings and left for Mahuli. Image courtesy -

Komal Singh HR & People Development Consultant | Mindfulness & Emotional Intelligence Facilitator | POSH Trainer | NLP Practitioner | Visiting Faculty | Research Scholar | Lifelong Learner & Spiritual Seeker Linkedin One evening, while taking a stroll, Taruna Vatsa and I found ourselves discussing how difficult it has become for professionals to genuinely connect with one another. With many people working from home and others spending hours commuting, opportunities to meet like-minded individuals, exchange ideas, and learn together have become increasingly rare. That conversation planted the seed for what is now the EI HR Circle—a community envisioned by me and Taruna. It was brought to life as a joint initiative by both of us under Trellis Consulting. The idea was simple: create a space where HR professionals, business leaders, founders, technologists, and curious learners could come together—not just for networking, but for meaningful conversations, collaborative learning, and building authentic professional relationships. A place where knowledge is shared freely, diverse perspectives are welcomed, and every interaction leaves us with a new perspective. Last Saturday, on 4th July, 2026, while Mumbai was under a Red Alert and much of the city slowed down, the EI HR Club came alive with its very first learning session on "The Landscape of AI in HR." The session brought together an enthusiastic group of professionals, including Neha Sharma, Kaninika Thakur, Khushbu, Harinath, and Ada Vatsa, each contributing unique perspectives and experiences that enriched the discussions. The diversity in the room made the conversations more insightful and reaffirmed the power of learning through a community. What unfolded was far more than a workshop. The room was filled with curiosity. Conversations moved seamlessly between the technical foundations of AI—agents, workflows, prompt engineering, and emerging capabilities—and the practical realities of implementing AI in HR. We explored real-world use cases, debated opportunities and challenges, reflected on ethical considerations, and discussed how organizations can adopt AI thoughtfully while keeping people at the center. Equally enriching were the conversations between sessions. New connections were formed, ideas were exchanged, and professionals discovered common ground beyond their organizations and roles. It was a reminder that while technology is transforming the way we work, human connections continue to be the catalyst for meaningful learning. This is just the beginning. Our goal for the EI HR Club is to grow into a vibrant community where professionals can delve into fresh ideas, challenge the status quo, build meaningful connections, and evolve together. In a world overflowing with information, it’s the trusted relationships, thoughtful dialogue, and shared learning that will always be our greatest asset. Here's to many more evening walks that spark new ideas—and many more Saturdays that transform those ideas into meaningful communities. Komal Singh Co-Founder, Trellis Consulting Educator | Researcher
